ABSTRACT A COMPUTATIONAL STUDY ON EXTENSION OF NON-CONTACT MODULATION CALORIMETRY May 2015 XIAO YE B.S., SOUTHEAST UNIVERSITY M.S., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST Ph. D., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST Directed by: Professor Robert W. Hyers Accurate thermophysical properties of high temperature metallic liquids are important for both industrial applications and scientific research. For the former, as predictive numerical simulations play an increasingly important role in pivotal industries, such as casting, welding and sintering, the lack of precise thermophysical properties, especially at high temperatures, hamper their further applications. On the other hand, from the stand point of basic metals physics, being able …
